Networks allow managers to come together in their local area and share a safe space to connect with peers, be open and support each other’s challenges, as well as building and sustaining a positive collective identity.
We support over 130 local networks across England. In 2023/24, over 500 network meetings took place across all our networks and new attendees are always welcome.
At each network, managers share knowledge and can access peer support. They hear from a range of guest speakers including local CQC inspection teams, commissioners, Integrated Care System (ICS) representatives and other sector organisations. Certificates of attendance are also offered and are a great way for managers to evidence CPD to the CQC. New attendees are always welcome.
In a recent survey highlighting the value of networks to both registered managers and deputy managers we found:
- 97% of managers would recommend joining their registered manager or deputy manager network.
- Over 80% felt more valued and supported in their current role as a result of attending their network.

Local network case studies
We know how important the local networks are to registered managers, so we asked some attendees to tell us what they think of their local network, why they attend, what they gain and why they recommend other managers attend.
